More quotes by Dario Argento
Horror is like a serpent always shedding its skin, always changing. And it will always come back. It can't be hidden away like the guilty secrets we try to keep in our subconscious.
Dario Argento
Paradise is too perfect for humanity.
Dario Argento
You must push everything to the absolute limit or else life will be boring.
Dario Argento
The process of writing and directing drives you to such extremes that it's natural to feel an affinity with insanity. I approach that madness as something dangerous, and I'm afraid, but also I want to go to it, to see what's there, to embrace it. I don't know why, but I'm drawn.
Dario Argento
When I see a film I've finished, it's like another person made it. Like another mind.
Dario Argento
In Italy the censor is very old and there are many judges and psychiatrists who analyse you.
Dario Argento
'Macbeth' is one of the best operas ever, and doing it was a great experience. I added some things to the opera based from my experience on the movie - such as some of the special effects and bits of film - to make it new and interesting. It was a very good work and a very good experience.
Dario Argento
If you don't like my movies, don't watch them.
Dario Argento

I wanted something new, the supernatural. The witch, the sorcerer, I love this. I love the films of the witch and sorcerers and magic, its wonderful!
Dario Argento

Dario Argento
Without psychology, the horror film doesn't exist.
Dario Argento
In each of my characters there is a little of me. Not strictly autobiographical but a little piece of my soul.
Dario Argento
Fear has disappeared. No more fear. In Asia, it is different. They've discovered again the fear and the psychology of the characters. Without psychology, the horror film doesn't exist.
Dario Argento
I like to watch many things, especially strange films and something recent, not just the story.
Dario Argento
I want to do what I want when I want to do it not be dictated to by audiences.
Dario Argento
I went through a phase where I thought nostalgia was a bad thing.
Dario Argento
But no one should have the right to manipulate my films in the first place.
Dario Argento
The Opera was a very cold film, a hopeless and dark film, no hope, no love.
Dario Argento
It irritated me that my fans kept wanting me to retread old ground.
